Publishers Square Enix is flexing a lot of money with the tracklist for the company’s upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy video game. Music plays a key role within theGuardians of the Galaxyfilms as the movie’s protagonist Peter Quill, aka Star-Lord, is a huge music fan.

That personality trait for the character will make its way into the game; however, Square Enix went all out with its selection of songs. In the canon of the films, Star-Lord was abducted from Earth in the late 80s, so his musical taste mostly sticks with that era of music and older. To properly reflect Star-Lord’s music sensibilities, Square was able to get the rights for a vast spectrum of iconic music from the 80s and older.

The Guardians of the Galaxy video game will feature a tracklist of world-famous bands like KISS, a-ha, Mötley Crüe, Def Leppard, New Kids On The Block, Tears For Fears, Europe, Flock of Seagulls, and Billy Idol. Of course, no 80s inspired soundtrack isn’t complete without a Rickroll - Rick Astley’s meme-tastic “Never Gonna Give You Up” will also be part of the soundtrack.
